Motor cortex causally contributes to auditory word recognition following sensorimotor-enriched vocabulary training

Brian Mathias, Andrea Klingebiel, Gesa Hartwigsen +4

The role of the motor cortex in perceptual and cognitive functions is highly controversial. Here, we investigated the hypothesis that the motor cortex can be instrumental for trans…

Predictive coding underlies adaptation in the subcortical sensory pathway

Alejandro Tabas, Glad Mihai, Stefan Kiebel +2

The subcortical sensory pathways are the fundamental channels for mapping the outside world to our minds. Sensory pathways efficiently transmit information by adapting neural respo…

Neural modelling of the encoding of fast frequency modulation

Alejandro Tabas, Katharina von Kriegstein

Frequency modulation (FM) is a basic constituent of vocalisation in many animals as well as in humans. In human speech, short rising and falling FM-sweeps called formant transition…

Reduced structural connectivity between left auditory thalamus and the motion-sensitive planum temporale in developmental dyslexia

Nadja Tschentscher, Anja Ruisinger, Helen Blank +2

Developmental dyslexia is characterized by the inability to acquire typical reading and writing skills. Dyslexia has been frequently linked to cerebral cortex alterations; however…

Task-dependent modulation of the visual sensory thalamus assists visual-speech recognition

Begona Diaz, Helen Blank, Katharina von Kriegstein

The cerebral cortex modulates early sensory processing via feed-back connections to sensory pathway nuclei. The functions of this top-down modulation for human behavior are poorly…
